2. Since we made maple cream, let's burn it in a bomb calorimeter to figure out how many calories sucrose contains. The main ingredient in this staple of life is sucrose, and maple cream has a sucrose content of 76%. In both the combustion process in a bomb calorimeter and in our bodies, the products of the reaction of sucrose (C12H22011, molar mass 342.3 g.mol-) with oxygen are CO2(g) and H2O(l). Write the balanced equation for the combustion of sucrose. When sucrose is converted to CO2 and H2O in a bomb calorimeter or in our body, is energy absorbed or released? Use the following information to determine the enthalpy of reaction, AH xn, for the combustion of sucrose. H2(g) + O2(g) → H2O(g) AH = -242 k) .mol-1 H2O(l) + H2O(g) AH2 = 46 k) .mol-1 O2(g) → CO2(g) AHz = -393 kl.mol-1 12C(gr) + 11H2(g) + 5.502(g) → C12H22011(s) AH4 = -2222 k) . mol-1 When 2.00 g of maple cream is combusted in a bomb calorimeter with a heat capacity of Ccal = 10.6 kJ/°C, the temperature of the water increases by 2.54°C. We can assume that the sucrose in the maple cream is the only ingredient that burns. From this data, calculate the following for sucrose. AE (kJ.mol-) AH (kJ.mol:-) The number of nutritional calories (kcal) per 100 g sucrose.
